KISS/Motley Crue Tour Press Conference

A little late with this post, BUT, better late than never.  Here is the press conference announcing the 2012 summer "Monster" tour of KISS and Motley Crue.

Unfortunately I'm going to miss this one as I recently moved half way across the country (Canada) back home from the hub of concert access in Windsor, Ontario where I could either go to Detroit and anywhere in Michigan or five hours up the 401 to Toronto to see any concert I wanted.  Hopefully the tour will come back this way in the fall or early next year in a "lost cities" tour (as KISS did last fall with Sonic Boom/Hottest Show on Earth) after touring in Europe.
